Relationships: The Four Pillars Of A Successful One

All relationships have one law.Never make the one you love feel alone,especially when you're there.

Relationships – the way in which two or more people are connected, byblood, bymarriage, by work, by intimacy, by interests, or by friendship – require a lot of work, by all the people included. But relationships give meaning to life; they are a result ofpeople needing each other for various reasons: for emotional support, psychological well-being, love, and affection, etc. But not all relationships are good relationships.

In good relationships, people are happy, healthy and carefree. People in successfulrelationships are peaceful and get along, encourage each other and are there for oneanother. But good relationships don’t just happen. They are constructed – even if over time– by four basic pillars. They are

1) Communication

2) Commonalities

3) Respect

4)Trust

The first pillar holding up a good, healthy relationship is verbal communication. All relationships depend on it. Everyone has needs and concerns – and people in good relationships lessen those burdens and problems. Relationships are based on love, and when it comes down to it, love is something that is communicated among people. Information, such as one’s needs, concerns, and frustrations, is transmitted through people, mostly through verbal communication. This includes the successful conveying or sharing of ideas, feelings, expectations, too, among people in relationships.

The second pillar of a great relationship is the people involved having similar objectives. A family co-exists peacefully when each family member wants peace and happiness. Two young people who envision a future together both want the same thing; therefore their relationship is based on, among other things, their goal to live together throughout life on a romantic and intimate basis.

Similarities tend to bring together seemingly different people. When people can work together toward a common goal, whatever it may be, they can be looked at as essentially being part of a relationship – because they were brought together, and connected, by a common task.

Respect and trust, the last two pillars of a good relationship, go hand in hand. People have good relationships with people they respect and trust. Respect, in this case, indicates to a deep admiration for another person elicited by their abilities, qualities or achievement. Many relationships are formed out of respect, at least in non-familial situations. The same goes for trust, the firm belief in the reliability, truth, ability or strength of someone, or the absence of the truth of a statement without evidence or investigation.

In conclusion, a good relationship isn’t simply supported by just one thing, but supported by a number of things. A good relationship where two or more people are connected through something, whether blood, marriage or mutual affection, needs a steady dose of communication, similar objectives, respect, and trust – the four pillars for any successful relationship.
